Thanks, @tsc, my big goal today is to get an appointment with a rheumatologist and get a viable plan in motion. Blessings to you!

Hi @centralflorida, I forgot to mention that when prednisone did give me insomnia, I had it until I tapered down to under 10 mg. Every night I was able to sleep two hours, then I would startle awake. I got up and read a regular book (not a tablet) for a couple of hours, drank some lemon balm or chamomile tea, then wewas able to go back to sleep for a couple of hours. A good sleep mask helps as well.
Take care.
